Boy, oh boy. You girls know how to make my heart go pitter-patter. Some of the entries from last week… my goodness. I’ve said it a couple of times, but we…the furniture refinishers, antique dealers and thrift store scroungers…are making this economy hum. I am always impressed by what I see each week, but this week gave me tingles. There were some pieces I wanted to pluck through the screen and put in my house. Thanks so much to all who shared and you have a lot to live up to this week! 🙂
Barb Blair of Knack Studios is a very dear friend of mine, so when I saw this piece of “Knacktastic” furniture, I immediately knew it had Barb’s fingerprints on it…except it didn’t. This piece is a miniature made for Barb by her friend Susan at Retro Restyling. That’s right…this is a miniature! I didn’t realize that until I read the full post. Anyway, I thought it was fantastic and worth sharing.
Shari from Turnstyle Vogue shared this gorgeous Empire piece. There is something about the warmth of the wood that is just amazing. I’m smitten.
Chrystal (aka The Shabbiest Chick) found this beautiful piece of furniture and painted it in MMSMP and the result is this authentically chippy finish that looks original to the piece. Of course, I love the milk paint, but this piece wears it so well. (And this piece is for sale!)
Lastly, Anne from Fiona and Twig shares some beautiful photographs of stunning pieces imported from France. If you struggle with Francophile-antique-envy, you might not want to click over. I know it’s probably all waaaaay out of my price range, but I loved window shopping.
Here are the rules for our furniture get-together…
1.) Your post has to be about furniture. Please, please, please…just furniture. If you find your link has been deleted, it’s not because I’m mean, it’s because your post was not about furniture. You can share makeovers, awesome finds, favorite pieces, furniture arrangements, or even pieces on your wish list! Built-in furniture like kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanities qualify as furniture.
2.) Post a permalink (the link to the post), not the link to your blog.
3.) This party will close Friday at midnight PST and I will choose my favorite(s) and feature their piece(s) on next week’s FFF.

Wonderful project features! I can't believe I'm the first link-up this time! I love FFF.
I want that antique tea cart too! What a great piece! Thanks for hosting FFF! 🙂
I was drooling over the tea cart as well 🙂 At least if she finds it missing, she'll know where to look! Thanks for hosting FFF, I love visiting!
Thanks for hosting Marian 🙂
hanks for hosting. My first time here. I'm a new follower. Stop by my blog sometime!
That little fridge is so cute. Thanks so much for hosting a great party!
Yes, yummy tea cart indeed! Nothing to link up this week but thought I'd take a shot at some frog tape. 🙂 Seems I was bitten by the good luck bug recently.

Hi Marian,
Thanks for the love for my headboard. It is great seeing it here on your site. My bedroom still needs a lot of work before I can call that project finished but I think it will have to wait until I return from NY.
Have a great weekend!
Marian!!

Oooh – I'm another one who luurrves the tea cart. Swoon.
Great posts from so many!
Everything is gorgeous!
I love looking at all the pictures! I have three things to show next week. I've been lazy and havent taken pictures. I need to get on that!
I finally have something done that I can feature! Thanks for hosting.
Wonderful projects! I have to admit I'm such a fan of that chalkboard mini fridge – so much so that I showed it to my daughter who will be headed to college next year. Wouldn't that be a great addition to a dorm room?
Looks like a ton of great ideas – I can't wait to click away! Have a great weekend.
